It’s such a peaceful place - far away from the noise of Accra yet close enough to make a day trip out of it. Perfect for mini getaways.

Santoku Tasting!

Santoku in Villagio has a really neat tasting menu for ¢390. It’s a 14-course menu with a little bit of everything. Each portion is really small, but all together, you’ll end up really full (I did anyway).
